    Luo Sigong really couldn't figure out Zhu Youxiao's attitude. With the current national power of the Ming Dynasty, only a decent vassal state like Korea was left.

    correct!

    There is also a Japanese country that always comes to pay tribute, but everyone knows that the Japanese country, like other so-called tributary vassal countries, is to put it bluntly, they are all here for business!

    And the relationship between Japan and Ming Dynasty is also very strange. When paying tribute, Japan regarded itself as a vassal state, but Ming fought with Japan in Korea. Although Japan was defeated in the end, it was not easy for Ming Dynasty to win!

    Recently, Cao Ling killed 10,000 Japanese pirates in Suzhou and built Jingguan. This made the civil servants in the court complain privately. However, because civil and military officials no longer interfere with each other, the civil servants' complaints can only be expressed behind their backs.  , you can¡¯t take it out and talk about it on the table!

    "But the emperor Zhu Youxiao didn't take this seriously. He just ordered the Ministry of Rites to send people to the Japanese country to investigate the crime. Regarding Cao Ling, you didn't mention rewards or punishments, as if Cao Ling just did a very common thing!

    Now that North Korea has surrendered to Houjin, this shows that the Ming Dynasty has lost its most important and final vassal state. Logically speaking, the emperor Zhu Youxiao should be angry. How could he be so happy?

    I can¡¯t figure it out!

    I really can¡¯t figure it out!

    When Luo Sigong walked out of the Forbidden City, he shook his head helplessly!

    It¡¯s just that Luo Sigong¡¯s troubles have little impact on his mood. North Korea, which has decided to surrender, is now facing real troubles!

    On the same day, Li Hui sent Li Erzhan to inform Jiang Hongli that North Korea was willing to surrender. He originally thought that Hou Jin would be able to withdraw his troops in this way, but Jiang Hongli asked to take over the city defense of Seoul. Otherwise, the North Korean monarchs and ministers were not sincere, and Hou Jin's army would attack Seoul!

    Li Erzhan was obviously dumbfounded by such a change. He didn't know that Hou Jin's territory was already on fire. In order to recover the losses, Nurhaci wanted to scrape off several layers of fat from the skinny donkey of North Korea!

    Originally, Li Hui and North Korean officials did not agree with such a request. After all, handing over the city defense to Hou Jin would be equivalent to handing over one's wealth and life to others. Even if they had surrendered, they would not have surrendered so completely!

    But with the arrival of Nurhachi¡¯s army, the North Korean monarchs and ministers completely gave up all their unrealistic thoughts. Li Hui personally went out of the city to worship in front of Nurhachi¡¯s horse, expressing his complete loyalty to Hou Jin from now on!

    Nurhachi did not blame Li Hui at all. On the contrary, he was very polite. However, after the Jin army took over the defense of Seoul, Nurhaci sent Jiang Hongli to give Li Hui a list and asked Li Hui to prepare it quickly!

    The list clearly stated: 500,000 dan of grain and grass, 10,000 taels of gold, 500,000 taels of silver, 100,000 jins of copper and iron each, 100,000 pieces of cloth, and 50,000 women of the right age!

    Is there a lot of stuff?

    To be honest, there are not many for a kingdom like North Korea. You can still get them all by squeezing them together, but Nurhaci requires that these things must be collected within five days, so this matter will be difficult!

    But now that even the city defense of Seoul has been handed over, can it be done without doing it?

    So in order to put together Nurhaci¡¯s list, the Korean soldiers stationed in Seoul went out to collect food, money, women, and everything that could be collected!

    For a time, there were cries and shouts everywhere inside and outside Seoul. Those Korean soldiers showed no mercy to their compatriots. As long as they had a grain of grain or a foot of cloth in their homes, they would be looted!

    In order to collect enough copper and iron, even the iron pots and copper locks in people's homes and the bronze statues in temples were confiscated!

    Those young women suffered a great disaster. They were snatched away from their families, and then they were driven to one place like cattle and sheep, and then sent to Houjin's military camp in batches!

    Although this unprecedented recruitment did not kill many people, the people inside and outside Seoul suffered a great disaster. In order to save their food, money, wives and children, many people fled to the south or mountains with their families overnight.  !

    Overnight, the once prosperous Seoul and its surroundings seemed to have turned into a ghost land. The people were dying, most of the houses were empty, and the only ones left behind were the old, weak, sick and disabled who just couldn't escape!

    But even these people, because the only food they had was plundered, had to look for wild vegetables and tree bark to satisfy their hunger in order to survive. But what makes these people sad is that even if they found some things that could satisfy their hunger, they could not survive because of the lack of even a pot.  None of them can only be eaten raw!

    The reason why Nurhaci searched North Korea so eagerly is because the battle reports from the rear have shown that the Ming army burned more than 70% of the farmland and killed thousands of Zhuangzi, and those who were killedMost of Zhuangzi's people belong to the soldiers who accompanied him on the expedition!

    After all, when these soldiers go to war, their home defenses become weak and can be easily breached. Naturally, they suffer the greatest losses!

    This time, the property and women collected from North Korea are not only reserved for the winter, but also rewards for these people. In this way, even if these people suffer heavy losses at home, they can still live a good life with these rewards!

    Five days passed quickly, and Li Hui finally got everything Nurhaci wanted. Nurhachi also praised Li Hui with satisfaction, and then left Jiang Hongli and a thousand yellow flag bannermen to guard Seoul, while he led the army in a hurry.  Run back!

    When Xiong Tingbi got the news that the main force of Hou Jin Dynasty was withdrawing, he immediately ordered all the Ming troops to retreat in separate routes. Datong soldiers and horses retreated directly from the grassland to Datong. Mao Wenlong's troops immediately went to sea. After the Guards and Liaodong soldiers and horses gathered, they fought with Liaoyang defenders.  The armies converge and consolidate the Liaoyang defense line!

    The Ming army came like fire and left like wind, but what they left behind were patches of scorched earth and corpses everywhere. It can be seen that the damage the army did to Hou Jin this time was no less than the damage Jin did to North Korea later. It can be seen that the differences between races  There is no mercy in war!

    When Nurhaci led the army back to Houjin, the soldiers who had been wiped out were so angry that they went crazy. Countless people shouted for Nurhaci to send troops to the Ming Dynasty to avenge them!

    But Nurhachi knew that it was obviously unwise to send troops now, so in order to calm the anger of those people, he increased the intensity of the reward a little more, and then suppressed the anger of those soldiers a little!

    After hearing Daishan's report on the matter, Nurhachi couldn't help but sigh softly. In order to help Daishan ascend to power, he suppressed his other sons, even Huang Taiji, who was already the leader of the Zhengbai Banner.  , Nurhachi was not allowed to participate in political affairs!

    But Daishan¡¯s talent was too mediocre. This disappointed Nurhaci and at the same time he had to think about the candidates for his future successor!

    Just when the Liaodong War was calming down, the Liaodong Navy began to return to its old business. Because of the Liaodong War, the orders for Korean slaves from Beijing and Tianjin were delayed, and they needed to make up for the outstanding orders as soon as possible!

    In order to get more Korean slaves this time, Mao Wenlong, the commander-in-chief of the navy, decided to go out in person and take everyone in the navy to Incheon.

    The reason why Mao Wenlong chose Incheon is because Pyongyang and Seoul have just suffered military disasters. People there must be panicked and there are many loopholes that can be exploited. As long as you move faster and arrest more people, there will be no problem!

    But when Mao Wenlong¡¯s fleet arrived in Incheon, he couldn¡¯t help but be dumbfounded when he saw the densely packed North Korean people gathering outside Incheon!

    "Could it be that these North Koreans knew that I was coming, so they ran here and waited?" Mao Wenlong couldn't help but think like this!  (Remember the website address: www.hlnovel.com
